That’s Unique Larry, owner of Unique Upholstery, Carpet, and Rug Cleaning. Larry’s birth name is Lawrence Rosenthal, but that doesn’t match his essence, presence, and personality.

In an alternate 1980’s universe, he could walk the earth as Unique Larry, a WWF wrestling manager as entertaining, if not more than the likes of Bobby “The Brain” Heenan or “The Mouth of The South”, Jimmy Hart. And maybe he is, but what I do know is that he’s a local legend here on the North Shore.

If you haven’t seen his Unique Upholstery, Carpet, and Rug Cleaning vans and truck bedecked with his 50’s style signage and caricature of himself and mascot and cutest dog ever, Willy, then you don’t get out much--and to be fair, these days that a good excuse.

Above all, Unique Larry is a giver who dedicates himself to helping others. He also has a smile that’s more infectious than what’s been going around. You might just see it at the end of our interview.
